DevIL problems

[CaptainJester]

I put in the rest of the methods for the main library(IL) in and uploaded to CVS.  When I compile and run the test, I get an UnsatisfiedLinkError.  However it is loading the library(lwjgl-devil.dll) successfully.  When I look inside the library, I don't see any of the method signatures.  (eg when I look in lwjgl.dll I can find all the method signatures such as glEnable etc...).  I don't know a lot about 'C' compiler options, so that could be causing the problem.

Any thoughts?

The problem is that lwjgl-devil.dll isn't dynamically loading its methods like lwjgl.dll does. Therefore you don't see any methods.
I speculate that this isn't a problem unlike lwjgl.dll, since *everybody* distributes devil.dll along if they use devil! This is not the case with lwjgl, where someone might choose not to use openal - which is why it is dynamically loading the stuff it needs.

I'll just try the new version and report back...

right - that'll be after work, since I have some uncommited string code - get back to you in 8+ hours

got the same error as you - easy fix.

You #ifdef the whole implementation out, by using:
#ifdef __cplusplus
but failing to #endif the following line

I have fixed this, and will commit later, when I have some other stuff in.

Whoops.  Thanks.

Broke the cardinal rule.  Check your code before you blame anything else. :oops:
